[Hook]
F#m    E


[Verse 1]
     Bm                                                   D
It's all out on the streets today but you, you've found a place to hide
    Bm                                         D
Too busy with the rat race, you pass by on the other side
A                                               C#m
Yours is the face of the brand new Britain with blinkers on your eyes
A                                Bm
Find yourself position and cling on for dear life


[Chorus]
          F#m        E    F#m   E
You're so frightened
               F#m            E    F#m   E
Everybody's so     frightened


[Verse 2]
    Bm                                                  D
The papers tell of rape and murder, everything that you want to hear
    Bm                                       D
Bad tidings on the radio - you find a way to name your fear
       A                          C#m
So you never pick up hitchhikers, never talk to strangers
  A                                   Bm
Believe the world outside your bolted door is evil


[Chorus]
          F#m        E    F#m   E
You're so frightened
               F#m            E    F#m   E
Everybody's so     frightened


[Solo]
F#m   G#maj7  A  B  Em11   (x4)


[Bridge]
G              Em             F#m
You are just a victim of your own bad dreams
      G              Em            F#m
While people are the same as we've always been
    G                     Em
But through the blindness in your eyes
    F#m
For just one minute I see them shine
A        C#m             F#m
Love me . .    won't you love me? But they all turn away


[Hook]
F#m   E


[Verse 3]
    Bm                                             D
You never fight for anything, you always turn your face away
        Bm                                         D
And you never get involved in trouble let all evil have it's way
          A                                     C#m
So as the girl screams in the street below, you turn up the television
   A                                          Bm
Perhaps you'll see it on the news - well it's nothing to do with you


[Chorus]
           F#m        E    F#m   E
You're too frightened
               F#m            E    F#m
Everybody's so     frightened
E                   F#m      E              F#m
Why is everybody so          frightened?
E               F#m            E       F#m     E
Everybody's so      frightened
